kmt_sesh Posted July 13, 2016 #601 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Okay, well. Is there evidence from Egypt itself that they went through all that work to craft a stone foot-scraper? What supporting proof can you offer from the ancient material culture? Besides, when you think about it, I'd rather just use a stick. While that thing's spinning around, I'd hate to get my foot stuck in one of those three holes behind the rib. Looks like a good way to toss you on your butt and break your ankle.

bLackbRight Posted July 13, 2016 #604 Share Posted July 13, 2016 We can thank ancient Egypt for medicine. It may have came with a warning sign for safety in hieroglyphs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when I was a student someone had done a cultural study of Villages new Bombay (modern Mumbai) and insanely noted that Parsi villages were richer because their waste dumps contained chicken, pork and beef bones while Muslim villages had only beef and chicken and Hindu none at all. Somebody actually wrote that down and published it! *Just in case someone didn't get it Parsee's had no religious objection to eating those three animals, Muslim's were okay with two but certainly not pork and the Hindu's were vegetarians. Parsee eat pork ? I thought it was not allowed in their scripture ? - according to the 'mythological set' of reasons - a 'fortuitous animal'. ( do not eat; an animal that did good things in the mythological / 'hero / epic tales' , a pet, an animal that is used used for another purpose, a young animal, an animal that has young a ;retired' animal, a 'noxious' animal , a ..... awww heck ... a rooster that wasnt a pet ... just eat that .

back to earth Posted July 13, 2016 #614 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) No def NOT a foot scraper . I only saw this object just now the and instantly figured out what it was used for .... because me so smart yes, the Egyptians did have dirty feet, but as stated, it needs to be more robust for feet. They actually had dirty hands too .... all that mud brick making . Edited July 13, 2016 by back to earth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
